Linda Spencer, Taygete (received 4 votes on Day 3) Voting: (Jessie, Ramona, Debb, Kel for Linda - Dirk for Debb - Carl for Jessie - Diane and Linda for Dirk)

"I had a wonderful time out here. The setting was amazing, the scenery was beautiful, and the people were great. I can't say this is where I wanted to say my goodbyes, but all things happen for a reason, as this one did. I was sent here for a purpose. I'd love to see how it all turns out, and I hope that Carl and Diane are there, but I don't think it looks really good right now for them. But I send them my best, and will keep them in my prayers. Make Taygete proud, guys. Make us proud."


Sonja Christopher, Alkyone (received 6 votes on Day 6 - 6 for Sonja, 1 for Ryan, 1 for Stephanie)

"I can't say I didn't expect this, so I have no hard feelings towards anyone. They did what they had to do, and I don't blame anyone in the slightest. But I would just like to thank them all for putting up with a slowpoke like me for so long, they did it and never made me feel like I was a liability, and that is something I all always remember. I will always hold them special in my heart. All of them."


Diane Ogden, Taygete (received 5 votes on Day 9 - 5 for Diane, 2 for Ramona)

"First off, it was an honor to be chosen for Second Chance. And I know I didn't get as far as I'd like, but you know what they say. Gotta make lemonade outta lemons. So let's get the loser lodge party started. The more Captain Morgan, the better! (smiling) Oh, I'll be fine. Besides, being voted out pre-jury means you get to take more trips. So I'll see you all on safari! Save me a seat!"


Carl Bilancione, Taygete (received 4 votes on Day 12 - 4 for Carl, 2 for Jessie)

"So it looks like I'm back here. Didn't really expect to go so soon again, but the writing was on the wall at the first vote. There wasn't a heck of a lot I could have done to avoid this, and so I take no shame in leaving so soon. Frankly, it probably would have been more shameful to stick around. And I wouldn't be surprised if Dirk ends up here in three days, just remember I warned him! I tried, but what are ya gonna do? Anyway, it's been a ride and I'd come do it again if you'll have me. Just, please, next time guys, please put me on a good team. You're killing me here."


Kel Gleason, Taygete (received 4 votes on Day 15 - 4 for Kel, 1 for Debb)

"Well... [he looks shocked] Well, I can't say I really expected this, so I'm not really sure what to say. Apparently I did something wrong, but I can't for the life of me figure out what it was. I felt I played a strong game, an ethical game, and a very disciplined game. I did everything I wanted to achieve, and I hold no ill will towards any of the people on my tribe. They did what they had to, and I really wish them all the best. Good luck, you guys. [he sighs, still in shock.]"


Hunter Ellis, Alkyone (received 6 votes on Day 18 - 6 for Hunter, 1 for Ryan)

"I'm not real happy at the moment, as you can probably see, but hey, what can you do? You do your best to lead a team, you give them a hundred and ten percent, and you just plain get screwed for it. I don't know if it's just me, maybe this is my destiny. Maybe I'm like that Sisyphus guy, just rolling a rock up a hill over and over, and never realize it's pointless. [He laughs, kind of bitter.] But I'm out again. Probably never gonna make a merge, and I doubt I'll really try again. I've had my fun, and shared a lot of good laughs, but in the end, you guys are no different from Sean and Rob and Vee, and you know it. Best of luck, I'm a big fan of you all."


Dirk Been, Taygete (received 3 votes on Day 21 - 3 for Dirk, 1 for Ryan, 1 for Jessie)

"First off, I want to thank the Lord for this unbelievable experience we've all been a part of. I'm so fortunate to have been given another chance to come out here, and it was just an incredible blessing. I have so many things to be thankful for, I'm not about to hold any ill will towards any of those guys back there. They did what they had to do, and I just thank the Lord for being able to be a part of it. I'd love to go on and say more, but I'm sure you all don't want to hear it. Just get on with the show and shut up, I know how it works. [He grins] But tomorrow's another day, and I know there will be more amazing experiences for me out there, and so it's just time for me to get going. I'll catch you all later. Peace out."


Debb Eaton, Alkyone (received 4 votes on Day 24 - 4 for Debb, 1 for Ramona)

"Thanks to Survivor for bringing me back. I know I dragged my feet, guys, and was kind of difficult about it, but I'm glad I came back. I'm really glad I did. And I got to the jury this time, which is much better than before, I suppose. [She grins] But that doesn't mean I think I couldn't have done better. Sure, why not? Stick me on a better team, and sure, I'll say it... give me a third chance, and I'll be sitting there in the winner's circle. Oh well. I'm glad I finally got to know Ramona. She's a nice person, and I'll miss her. Even though I tried my best to get her out, she out-sneaked me, so what can ya do? So that's it for me. It was a lot more fun this time, that's really I can say about that. Although... uh... I can't say I will miss Jessie that much. A little too pampered for me.. Um.. so best of luck, everyone. I'll see you guys in the jury."


John Raymond, Taygete (lost via Dagger Draw, random selection on Day 27)

"[He looks a little sheepish] Well, that certainly wasn't the way I wanted to go out, but I'll say one thing. I would rather go out this way, with my head held high, than to have given in to two people who I don't frankly respect all that much. Stephanie, you're an amazing woman, and I wish you luck to go all the way. Tanya, I apologize for letting you down as well. We had it. We really did. And I feel no shame right now, other than to say that strategically, I made the wrong choice. Sure I did. But in the game of life, some things are just more important than winning. And I would do the same thing over again if I had the chance. The exact same thing. Some times, you just have to stick to your morals, even if you know it's gonna cost you. I had a wonderful time. Thanks, guys. Thanks for giving me a second chance. I had a blast."


Jessie Camacho, Xanathos (received 5 votes on Day 30 - 5 for Jessie, 1 for Gabriel, 1 for Stephanie)

"I don't really know why everyone was so angry with me, and I'm not sure I'll ever know. I thought I was in pretty good shape, and then all this stuff happened and it made my life so hard the past few days. I'll always have fond thoughts of everyone, and I hope everyone stays safe out there and comes home in one piece. That's it for me, I hope I did well. I hope you guys liked me again. I love you all."


Ryan Aiken, Xanathos (received 5 votes on Day 33 - 5 for Ryan, 1 for Stephanie)

"Hey, what's up? This is Ryan, you all probably know me, and I'm sure you expected to see me here, so we'll just cut out all the surprise stuff. I knew it was my turn tonight, couldn't do much to stop it. I figured sooner or later my mouth would get me into trouble. I'm kind of a compulsive talker, don't know if you figured that out or not. [He smiles, his biggest charming smile.] So I'm outta here now, all my love to the ladies, you know who you are. I'll definitely be seeing you all again. Good luck to the winner. God bless."
